We shouldn't let judgements like this prevail at the cost of inadequately socialized kids. They are our responsibility as a society and we cannot just throw away their lives in prison. Cyntoia Must Be Released, with our help.
Why is this important?
Justice has not been served rightfully, causing the smart, bright and wonderful Cyntoia's life to be discarded, when instead we were supposed to support and care for youths who are broken and wounded, to give them another chance to strive, to achieve, and to make a change to others around them; to make them a living testimony. However, the justice system has let the tough overrule the weak and feeble and thrown Cyntoia's life away by giving her a life sentence at the age of 16 in 2004 for simply defending herself from a 43 year old man. But we shouldn't let this judgement prevail and stop us for making amends. Cyntoia Must Be Released, with our help.
